Why is a web UI integration required? I'm not outright rejecting doing so, but I see rather limited value of having this HW exposed in the UI, as the UI is already rather crowded and that's why I'd like to keep niche features to API/CLI only, so I'd like to manage your expectations – not that you do lots of work that then won't get accepted. Maybe you could open an enhancement request for this over at our Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/ I'd then mark it as postponed and comment that others interested in this should show so by commenting too. If we get a few requests with somewhat good use cases I'd be easier for me to argue reevaluating this. Out of interest: What's actually your use case for an emulated QEMU watchdog? Personally I only use the Linux softdog in VMs. Oh, and btw. if you decide to develop something please check out our developer docs, especially the CLA part: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Developer_Documentation#Software_License_and_Copyright Thanks!
